Chapter 45: New school, new friends! ~ Ask for a monthly ticket~)
It was already evening when Esther and Avant walked out of the cemetery.
"I have to pick up Kratos and Logan."
"I wonder how the two little guys are adapting to the new school?"
Esther opened the door for Avant first, watched Avant get into the passenger seat, then got into the driver's seat and said to Jason and Alas.
Jason didn't have much contact with the two children and didn't speak.
Instead, Alas laughed.
"Don't worry, the two little guys are very strong and won't be bullied."
Alas promised.
"No, no."
"Aras, you got it wrong."
"I'm worried about what trouble they might cause."
"This time I transferred to a new school by using the connections of Senior Edmon. If I were dropped out, I would really have to stay at home until the beginning of the next school year before I could choose a school again. It is very difficult to get into a good school.
Difficult."
When Esther faces two little guys, he always unconsciously assumes the role of an old father.
Avant on the side noticed this keenly.
"Who are Kratos and Logan?"
Avant asked, thinking deep down in his heart, am I going to be a grandfather?
I just became a father, and now I have to upgrade to become a grandfather...is it too fast?
"no."
Esther smiled and shook her head.
Avant's uneasy feeling just a moment ago disappeared, but he felt a little disappointed for no reason.
"Are they?"
Avant continued to ask.
"They are the orphans of our comrades-in-arms."
"Their fathers were all singles. After their sacrifice, senior Edmon and I could only take care of them. There were also some other people. In order to cover up others' eyes, we had to set up the so-called 'brotherhood'."
Esther explained.
"Orphan?"
"'Temple' again?"
Avant frowned behind the mask.
"Um."
Esther nodded, and after the smile on his face faded slightly, he started the car.
Looking at the suppressed sadness on his son's side face, Avant sighed slightly in his heart.
It is obvious that after losing him and his wife, although Esther has grown up very strong, there are still some holes and unspeakable scars in his heart.
So much so that after Esther saw Kratos and Logan who had similar experiences to her own, she couldn't help but feel pity and put herself into them.
Avant narrowed his eyes slightly when he thought of this.
He hated that 'temple' even more in his heart.
Originally he had a happy family, a virtuous wife, and smart children.
And now?
His wife is dead.
His child has also reached adulthood, and he has missed the most important period of growth for his child.
Although his children were equally sensible and intelligent, the more they were like this, the more he hated the 'temple'.
It was they who made him lose the opportunity to teach his son through words and deeds.
Look at his son's strength. Although he is stronger than ordinary people, he does not have any inheritance of swordsmanship belonging to him. There is no doubt that his disappearance was so sudden that he did not leave any inheritance at all.
The feeling of guilt rose again.
Mixed with hatred for the 'Temple'.
Now he can't wait to find the lair of the 'Temple' and strike hard with his sword.
But what's more important is Esther.
My son's strength is too poor. If he encounters danger...
Thinking of this, Avant himself spoke.
"Starting tomorrow, you and I will learn swordsmanship."
"ah?"
"Dad, can I still learn swordsmanship now?"
"Isn't it too late?"
Esther asked in surprise while driving.
"Others can, but you can't."
"Because you are my son."
Avant said calmly.
"Um."
Esther nodded logically, as if it was normal.
Jason, who was sitting in the back row, watched this scene, and the energy in his heart that continued to complain couldn't help but want to spurt out, but in the end he held it back, and in order to divert his attention, he had to say: "Kui
What’s the name of Toth and Logan’s new school?”
"Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters."
Esther replied.
…
After finishing his course for the day, Kratos packed up his schoolbag and prepared to go find Logan.
For Kratos, the school in front of him is no different from the previous school.
Except that the courses taught are slightly more difficult.
genius?
Kratos frowned in confusion at the school's sign.
A course of this difficulty cannot be called a genius.
However, maybe he and Logan were the ones preparing for preschool.
It will be better to enter formal classes or advanced classes when you are older.
With this thought, Kratos walked towards the next classroom.
Because they were transfer students, Kratos and Logan could not be placed in two classes with the same number of students, so they entered Class 1 and Class 2 respectively.
Kratos is in class 1.
Logan is in class 2.
There is only a wall separating the two classrooms.
get out of class has ended, and the doors to the two classrooms have already been opened. Kratos does not need to push the door, he can see everything in the classroom by standing directly at the door. However, Logan is not found, only a few students who have not left are together. Whisper.
The topic of conversation is Logan.
"The new guy is miserable."
"How dare you provoke Dawu and the others."
"It's 'Dawu' and the others who are bullying others. I'm going to tell the teacher."
"Um."
"We have to hurry up, or the new guy will be beaten."
The children's conversation told Kratos everything.
"Where did they take Logan?"
Kratos came over and asked directly.
"The woods behind the school."
The children around him were startled by the tall and strong Kratos, and one of them said timidly.
"Thanks."
After Kratos thanked him, he turned around and ran outside.
The moment he turned around, Kratos' expression became gloomy.
Too careless!
I actually forgot about the unique characteristics of each school!
Don't let anything happen!
With such a cry from the bottom of his heart, Kratos ran faster and faster.
Even when going downstairs, he jumped down the stairs like parkour.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be hard to imagine that a five-year-old child could do all this.
No!
Even as an adult, it is difficult to do all this.
But Kratos has become accustomed to it.
because……
He is a true warrior!
Soon, Kratos rushed to the woods behind the school.
He saw Logan, who was surrounded by four or five children, taking out a knife and sobbing.
"Don't come over!"
Logan cried, but the knife in his hand stabbed the nearest child.
The tip of the knife is pointed directly at the throat, and it is brutal and brutal.
The child who was the perpetrator never thought that such a thing would happen, and he was immediately stunned.
Kratos' face changed drastically as he rushed over.
What he was most worried about happened.
He wasn't worried about Logan being bullied at all.
I'm just worried that those who bully Logan won't die too miserably.
To some extent, Logan is the scariest one.
While sobbing and pretending to be the best bully, he took out a knife and stabbed his opponent's vital part without hesitation.
I really don’t know how the other person’s father educated the other person.
Kratos, thinking in his heart, threw out his schoolbag.
Snap!
The schoolbag hit Logan's arm, and the knife was crooked and missed its target.
But it made the child fall to the ground in fright.
"Wow!"
The child cried and peed his pants, then got up and ran towards the teaching building. The children around him even ran away when Logan took out the knife.
"I want to tell the teacher!"
The kid who peed his pants shouted loudly at Logan when he passed by Kratos.
Kratos raised his eyebrows and stretched out his feet calmly.
thump!
The naughty kid who turned his head back didn't even notice the kick and was tripped to the ground.
Kratos lowered his head and looked at the teary-eyed naughty kid, and an extremely fierce expression suddenly appeared on his face.
"If you dare to tell nonsense, I will kill you."
Kratos said word for word.
The naughty kid who had forgotten to cry because he fell to the ground burst out crying again, then got up and continued running.
However, this time, he didn't say anything more.
Obviously, the naughty kid was frightened.
"They took action first, so I..."
Looking at Kratos walking towards him, Logan was too timid to look up.
"Don't cause trouble for Esther and Uncle Edmund."
"Do you know?"
Kratos said.
"Yeah, I got it."
"I will be patient."
Logan nodded.
"Why be patient?"
"You are not wrong!"
"I'm just telling you that you can't use a knife in this situation next time. You still have the hands and feet to beat them hard. If you can't beat them, tell me and I will help you!"
Kratos's voice suddenly rose in pitch.
When you are right... a warrior never gives in.
Logan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled with tears on his face.
"good."
He nodded.
Then, the two picked up their schoolbags and dusted them off.
They don't want to be seen by Esther and Uncle Edmon.
At this moment, the two of them looked into the depths of the woods in no particular order.
There, a 7 or 8-year-old little girl was quietly watching here.
The little girl has shoulder-length blond hair and beautiful gray-green eyes. There is a timid feeling in her eyes at the moment.
"Students in formal classes?"
Kratos thought, but had no idea of asking more questions, and said hello to Logan.
"Let's go, Logan."
"Oh, I got it, Kratos."
Logan nodded, and before turning to leave, he smiled at the female student who was supposed to be in the formal class and waved as a farewell.
This is what his father taught him, and he should be polite.
The little girl who was quietly watching here was startled for a moment, then immediately responded and waved.
She watched Kratos and Logan disappear before disappearing into the woods.
Whether it was Kratos or Logan, they just regarded this as an unexpected encounter.
But, that little girl is not.
She thought she had made friends.
We will definitely meet again!
The girl thought so.
Then, Logan, who was walking side by side with Kratos towards the school gate, suddenly raised his hand and touched his trouser pocket, and found that his knife was missing.
"I must have just been careless and dropped it there."
"Kratos, wait for me, I'll be back soon."
Logan said.
"I'll go back with you."
Kratos sighed like a young adult, and returned to the woods with Logan.
